Hello! I’m Ada, a recent graduate from the Digital Media Honours BA program at York University. I have been a Brain Trainer with LearningRx-Richmond Hill since 2022. I decided to become a Brain Trainer primarily to support students and their educational needs. I have a background in working with students as both a tutor and aquatics instructor. Coupled with my own experience growing up, I noticed that learning can be a huge challenge, and being there for my students on a one-on-one basis allows me to help them on a deeper level. In my spare time, I love to draw and watch movies with my family. As an artist, I am striving to one day use my creativity and skills in the media industry!

Hello! My name is Bonny and I have always had a passion for working with children and helping them grow both academically and personally. I completed my undergraduate studies at McMaster University.

Over the years, I’ve worked in various roles involving children and youth. These experiences have shaped my commitment to inclusive and student-centered education.

I’m currently pursuing my Master of Teaching at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education in Toronto, where I’m continuing to build my skills as a future educator.

Hi! My name is Darian and I have a Bachelor of Arts in psychology. I’m currently in my graduate studies pursuing a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology to become a registered psychotherapist. My passion for helping and supporting others on their journey towards betterment led me to LearningRx-Richmond Hill.

In my free time, I like to go out for walks, volunteer, read, and binge shows. Recently, I’ve been dabbling in newer hobbies like collecting cards and building model kits.

I joined LearningRx-Richmond Hill in 2023, driven by a longstanding passion for helping others reach their full potential. I’m currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. What drew me to LearningRx was the powerful combination of strong client testimonials and the opportunity to strengthen cognitive skills in a meaningful, lasting way.

Over the past two years, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing remarkable growth in my students which has been an empowering experience. I’m a strong advocate for individualized programming, and I appreciate how LearningRx’s one-on-one training model supports this approach so effectively. I’m especially passionate about working with students who benefit from behavioral or emotional support, as well as those who are neurodivergent.

Outside of work, I enjoy hot yoga and Pilates, hiking, swimming, reading, and baking. I also love to travel, some of my favorite destinations so far include Italy, Greece, Amsterdam, Panama, and Cape Cod. Japan and Alaska are next on my list!

I believe that building strong, trusting relationships is at the heart of meaningful work. I strive to create a supportive, encouraging environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. I tailor my approach to each individual, recognizing that everyone learns and grows in their own way, and I am here to support that journey every step of the way!

Hello! My name is Lauren and I am a certified brain trainer! I graduated with honours from York University with a Bachelor’s degree in Educational Studies in 2024. I am currently completing my Bachelor of Education at York University, striving to pursue a career as a French teacher. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and spending time with family and friends. I am very outgoing, positive, and funny! I have always had a passion to work with individuals to reach their goals and succeed. I am truly honoured to be a part of the LearningRx-Richmond Hill team!

I became part of the LearningRx-Richmond Hill family in 2021. With an Honours Bachelor of Science from the University of Waterloo, where I majored in Psychology and minored in Biology, I’ve always been fascinated by how we think, grow, and connect. Today, I’m pursuing my Master’s and PhD in Clinical and Counselling Psychology at the University of Toronto, driven by a deep passion for mental health and lifelong learning.

My journey has led me through meaningful work with the York Region District School Board and immersive mental health research at Sunnybrook hospital, giving me the privilege of working alongside individuals from a wide array of ages, cultures, and with different life experiences. These moments remind me every day that learning isn’t just academic – it’s deeply personal. I wholeheartedly believe that strengthening foundational learning skills is the key to unlocking one’s full potential. When learning is joyful and empowering, it fuels our inner drive and helps us fall in love with the process itself.

As a trainer, I take immense pride in celebrating every victory – big or small – with my students. Watching their confidence grow is the most rewarding part of what I do, because I believe that confidence in one self is the gateway to a lifelong love of learning.

When I’m not training, you can find me hanging out with friends, playing badminton, or indulging in cozy evenings filled with movies and TV shows! I’m also an avid traveler- nothing fills my soul quite like discovering nature’s beauty and connecting with people from around the world.
